strings?

In rhythm the beats beat

The whistler whistles on

Silence

Bang!

You’re afraid,

Paranoid

 

Stages, take you down

Crawl, walk, run, crawl.

You cannot move

You do not wish to

Dazed, fazed,

Or just dead?

 

Strings, attached

Attachments, inert

Inertia, apathy,

Apathy, chained.

Strings be damned.
